Children's Grand Park

May 10, 2010
Yesterday Clint had a family day so he didn't have to work. (Its a new thing they're trying to implement, 1 family day a month). So we ventured out and took advantage of the beautiful weather again. This time to the Children's Grand Park in Seoul. The best part about this park is that its FREE!!!
Morgan LOVED this train. She kept trying to climb the fence so she could climb the train.
Jackson was perfectly content in the stroller all day chewing on his fingers.


The park has a zoo, which is also free. It was an amazing zoo for being free. I expected local animals in cages. But they had everything a normal zoo would have.










I really wanted a cute picture of Clint and Morgan in front of this waterfall, but the girl to the left was dressed nice a posing for pictures. Graduation maybe?

Feeding the birds

Morgan didn't like the birds landing on her.


Morgan wouldn't say "monkey" all she would say is ooo ooo eee eee.





Mandarin Duck.
This family bathroom had a cute little kid toilet. Morgan loved it!
One of the funniest things about Korea is their public exercise equipment. I guess maybe thats why they stay in fairly decent shape throughout their adulthood.
Jackson was the star of the show at the park. Everyone loves his blue eyes. And he likes to wave to everyone who passes by, so he was getting quite a bit of attention.
On our way out Morgan begged daddy for a balloon. You can't see it cause the wind was blowing it behind Clint, but she was blissfully happy about it.

Trip to Hangang Park

Clint has been working a lot lately. He's training a new pilot on the DMZ/no fly line. Thank heavens the other pilot took a 3 week vacation to Hawaii so Clint could have some time off too! He actually had this weekend off so we've been spending as much time outside as possible (since the weather has finally gotten nice!). We barbequed at home and ate outside for as many meals as possible. We have to get it all in before its humid and monsoon season!!

There is a huge river that runs through Seoul called the Han River. I'm talking huge!!! About 319 miles long to be exact. All along the river there are parks. Its actually considered one big long park called Hangang Park. There are pools, playgrounds, sports fields, resturaunts, picnic areas, boats, and we even found a 7-11 where we bought some icecream and drinks. Unfortunately I forgot my camera and these pics are from my cell phone.
Morgan eating her marshmallow icecream thingy.

This is a peach drink called 2%. Its one of my favorite Korean drinks, and I don't even like peach flavored stuff.
Morgan chasing the pigeons. I think this was the highlight of her week!

Everland Trip

May 1, 2010
Clint had to work again this Saturday, so I tagged along with some friends to Everland, which is kind of like Disneyland in Korea. They have cartoon characters walking around, rides, shops, shows, etc.
Our friends, Nikki & RJ
In the Fairy Gardens (I've given up trying to get a decent picture of this kid)


Jackson is in heaven when he's in his Beco baby carrier.

This was a fun house for kids. All the guns shoot balls.
You go around and collect them
Then put them into these fun machines and push the button.

This one shoots them straight into the air.
Morgan trying to carry as many as possible
Morgan in the Beco, boy is she heavy!
Morgan's fist amusement park ride. It was an airplane that went up down and around. She loved it!!
Unfortunately by the time we got the main kidland place, most of the rides were a 1 hour wait. And the ones that weren't, she was too small to ride :( But she did get to ride a few quarter machines.


Cute fairy magic show. I loved all the spring colors!
Jackson with RJ
We had so much fun with our friends. They are leaving today and we're so sad to see them go. But we will see them in Texas in about 6 months!!! Good luck Woolheaters, we love you guys!

Sitting Up

Jackson has been sitting up on his own for about 2 weeks now. He loves being such a big boy. He will sit with his toys and just play for a good hour (or until his siter knocks him over). This has also made bath time much more enjoyable for him. He sits and splashes and loves every second of it. I'm so happy he's sitting up 2 months earlier than Morgan did!!
